Ben is wide (in a fishy way)

I managed to acquire a fisheye lens today from a kind gentleman from Craigslist.

It is a 15mm F2.8 EF Fisheye, and partnered with my 5D can create some pretty good imagery.

I was originally going to purchase a 17-40mm F/4L ultra wide zoom lens, however the 15mm is a bit wider, a bit sharper, has crazy distortion and is 2 stops faster. I think I'll keep my 35mm F/2.0 until I can find a deal on a 50mm F/1.4.

In the process of trying to pull money from the Union Bank ATM in North Park, my North Island FCU debit card was "retained" by the machine. This was very embarassing and troubling to me, turns out 2,000 North Island customers got new cards in the mail due to a fraud/theft operation. I guess I should check my mail more often.

Anyway, as soon as I got home I rushed into the M3 to take some cliche wide angle car shots. I haven't really taken pictures of the M3 with the BBS CHs on, enjoy!

The lens is amazingly sharp! It is also amazingly wide, I had to crop my feet and arms out of some of the shots. The effect is pretty amazing, I cannot wait to take architecture and landscape shots with the glass.
